Do You Remember Roller-Derby? Watch A & E Rollergirls

Do You Remember Roller-Derby? Watch A & E Rollergirls

I’m not sure why I have this fascination, but over the weekend I found a show in the Channels insert for Rollergirls on A & E TV. I set the DVR and with any luck, I’ll be able to report more tomorrow.

I remember growing up in the 70’s and watching the tail end of the crash-‘em up dramatic drama of the roller-derby on TV. Pushing, shoving, and basically all around good wholesome fun, right?

Lines from A & E’s Website for the show:Photo AETV.com

“ROLLERGIRLS is the rollicking, real-action show that puts you on the fast track of the Austin Thunderdome.”

“Every non-scripted ROLLERGIRLS episode follows the women as they square off against each other on the track and then face everyday challenges with boyfriends and bosses off-track.”

The Rollergirls Sister Mary Jane, Punky Bruiser, Cha Cha, Venus Covy, Miss Conduct, Jailbait, Witch Baby and a few more…

Doesn’t this sound just like great reality TV fun? I just can’t wait to see this one…

If you’ve seen Rollergirls, I’d love to hear more!
